Important Operating Instructions
17.2.1
Before you start working
Check the workpiece for foreign objects, cracks and loose knots.
Use only sharp, crack-free and sufficiently set saw blades.
Check that the saw blade on the band saw roll is correctly tensioned and aligned.
Check the saw blade guide for correct adjustment.
Adjust the height-adjustable guard to the height of the workpiece.
Have any necessary aids (e.g.: rip fence, push stick, etc.) ready.
If gloves are required for workpiece handling, they must be finger-free.
17.2.2
During work
Move the adjustable guard for the band saw blade as close as possible to the workpiece.
When feeding the workpiece, do not place your hands on the workpiece in the area of the
cutting plane.
Feed the workpiece at a constant speed and constant pressure.
Use aids for safe workpiece guidance:
-
When cutting workpieces standing on edge, secure them against tilting (e.g. by means
of contact angle, rip fence, sliding shutter).
-
Secure round workpieces against twisting with a wedge support.
-
When cutting round discs, use a circular cutting device.
-
For long or wide workpieces, ensure good workpiece support (e.g. by widening or
lengthening the table).
Never remove splinters or chips by hand while the saw blade is running.
17.2.3
After work
- Switch machine off, wait for standstill.
- Remove wood chips and splinters from cutting area and table insert.
- Lower the saw blade cover onto the machine table.
- To protect the running surfaces of the wheels, remove the band saw blade tension and
attach a warning sign to the machine reminding you that the saw blade tension must be
reset before the next use.
